Members 59refin Posted November 17, 2012 Members Share Posted November 17, 2012 Just played one at a GC and it absolutley rocked. Not only did it sound great (like you would expect from TC) but it was built like a tank. How many DL4 footswitches have you replaced? Better sounds, built better, toneprint capable, same price as DL4. Winner! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members JrB Posted November 17, 2012 Members Share Posted November 17, 2012 Just a note on the switch reliability issue. This was brought up i the TGP flashback x4 thread and Tore from TC said the switches on the x4 are different than the ones on the other pedals and are replaceable. I really want to try the x4 out.

The Digital sounds were great, but the analog and tape voicings were really cheesy sounding. The Delaylab seemed to have a lot more richness to the repeats. It is really simple to dial in, but the fact that the Delaylab is way more versatile, seemed to sound much better and is 20 bucks cheaper....I'd say Delaylab wins in my book. (also for those concerned on size the Delaylab is only 1/4" wider than the X4) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members One Man Banned Posted November 17, 2012 Members Share Posted November 17, 2012 Only one delay at a time...no MIDI or presets beyond what's on the footswitches...pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Max Factor Posted November 19, 2012 Members Share Posted November 19, 2012 so when's Line 6 going to drop a DL-4-X500 or some such. They've been overdue for some updates, love to know what they're thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Cirrus Posted November 19, 2012 Members Share Posted November 19, 2012 Funny though, based on user reports I can't help but wonder if the M series isn't a step back in terms of sound quality? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(also for those concerned on size the Delaylab is only 1/4" wider than the X4) I completely agree! Another thing I don't like about it is the lack of a tone knob. I really don't care for TCE delays, but love HOF reverb. Its defiantly not replacing my DD20. I may look into Vox. I need looper and love the way the pedal is layed out.
